Question

Which is the equation of the line with slope 5 that contains point (−2, −3)?

A. y – 2 = 5(x – 3)
B. y + 2 = 5(x – 3)
C. y + 3 = 5(x + 2)
D. y – 3 = 5(x – 2)

Answer 1

Option C.
`y+3=5(x+2)`

Explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line into point slope form is equal to

`y-y1=m(x-x1)`

In this problem we have

`m=5`

`(x1,y1)=(-2,-3)`

substitute the given values

`y+3=5(x+2)`
